Post updated, top of Page 1. Stagecoach is nearly complete Some queries and comments: I thought EN10/2/3 at AL were for V152 EN14 at BX seems to be for the VB16 (at least this week), whilst SE92 seems to be the VB11 regular. I've read elsewhere that the Tower Transit extras are operated by TT (i.e. not on loan) Is this the case?

If a route is getting operated with extras from another garage or operator then they are operating the route. It is based on spare drivers. Tower Transit are operating the V635, V642, V681 and V698 alongside the normal RATP service. N are operating the V269 while the 269s normal service is at DT and same goes for the V50 at TC and V313 at EC

Cool, I'll change these - regarding the TT VN's, no idea, I did leave a message in the RATP but got no reply so probably best to ask someone like busdryverThe excel file works now, it shows their times at various points along the routes with extras, very useful.

Excellent when (or if) you can access it. Wouldn't post if it wasn't accessible londonbusroutes.net/covid.htm"Click here for timetables for extras available so far - these will be added to the table as time permits. " Try clicking through above. It downloads an Excel file.

The extras that Tower Transit are providing (V635, V642, V681, V698) are operated by Tower Transit themselves from Westbourne Park bus garage. All of the drivers from the VNs are wearing Tower Transit uniforms. There seems to be an odd schedule to the fact that the V635 (Tower Transit) operates 20 or so minutes after the RATP SPs have already left (based on LVF)

It seems completely pointless.

973 is one of the Ensignbus covering some of the North/East London school routes.

Are all the school extras every other bus? every 147 I have seen in both the AM and PM peak have displayed the red Non School Bus sign. I am just wondering if drivers forget to swap the signs..... I'm seeing "school service" signs on the 94 at 8pm in the evening... as well as "Bus Full" signs on the 113 when there are 5 passengers on board...

I'm expecting to see a bus full, non school , school service any day soon In fairness I guess drivers can forget to remove the signs.

Think they are the same slightly thicker style Johnstons style font that First London use to use on the Romford area routes around 2008/2009 .

Though if the 113 was at 8pm, the 113 is generally overfilled way past the capacity between Frognal and Selfridges even with extras, the 13 is just untouched for some reason. I don’t know how bad the 113 is along Watford Way so if anyone is local ..?
